Lyrics
Well it's nearly time to say goodbye, we've barely crystallized a thought between us
I want to spend more hours, more days until a grem of truth is caught between us
I've played a game with you; haven't you seen that you have, too?
All of your words have been so fine, but are you into my mind?
Aren't we both from the same Mind?
Can you see that society has got us brainwashed?
Can you see spontaneity has always been crushed?
Can you see that you're leaving me before we've begun?
Where is the truth in the songs that you've sung?
So there won't be ways for us to know each other
Unless we find love to blow each others minds.
Will there ever be a human fold like the huddle of a flock of sheep in winter?
Can we stay warm beneath a blanket of peace like the snow allows the grass to sleep in winter?
I see a world of fools not knowing how to break the rules,
Not knowing rules are there to break, are we to have the same fate?
Have we both earned the same fate?
Can you see that you're leaving me before we've begun?
Where is the truth in the songs that you've sung?
So there won't be ways for us to know each other
Unless we find love to blow each others minds.
Be free and learn to love me.
Be true and learn to love you.
Be free and learn to love me;
Be true and learn to love you.
